Performance Series Controlled Room Temperature CabinetThe ARS62PVBIADA-CRT is a 6 cu.ft. upright storage unit designed for medication requiring stable room temperature. Pre-set to 72ºF with an adjustable range from 68º to 77ºF, it stands under 32" high to comply with ADA guidelines. An externally located microprocessor controller minimizes door openings, while a buffered temperature probe ensures precise monitoring. The unit features audible and visual alarms for temperature deviations, power failure, door open, and sensor issues. Forced air cooling with an internal fan maintains uniform temperature, and adjustable wire shelves accommodate various storage needs. The double-pane tempered glass door offers full visibility, with a self-closing, user-reversible function. A factory-installed lock enhances security, and the antimicrobial handle reduces germ spread. Using hydrocarbon refrigerant, this unit is energy efficient and compatible with Pyxis, Omnicell, and AcuDose RX systems, making it an ideal choice for controlled room temperature storage.
